Sovereign Chen Ling's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
That was the deity whom he had summoned through countless sacrifices! He had thought that he would be able to use the latter to reign supreme over the Spirit Tribe, but who could have known that he would be smashed to death by a mere book?
As if he was suffering from constipation, Sovereign Chen Ling rubbed his eyes furiously, fearing that he was seeing things.
A Dimension Shatterer realm expert and a lousy book … There was such a huge gap between the two, and yet …
Yet another mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.
The hell! Do you really have to be so f * cked up?
Aren't you supposed to be the most powerful person in the world?
Do you think that you can toy around with so many people?
To die with a single book …
Unable to believe his eyes, Sovereign Chen Ling rushed forward, only to see that the other party's head had been split open, and his vitality had been sapped dry. He was already deader than dead.
Unable to hold it in any longer, Sovereign Chen Ling burst into tears.
How could he be so unlucky?
His dragon blood had been stolen, his ability to recover from his injuries had been stolen, and now, his backer had been killed …
Ever since he met Zhang Xuan, nothing had gone smoothly.
It was fortunate that the deity did not expect to die, so he did not have the time to destroy his soul. Otherwise, he would have died along with the deity.
"…"
Ancient Sage Allfire, Ancient Sage Mo Ling, Sovereign Chen Yong, and the others glanced at one another in confusion.
They had thought that they were doomed this time around, but who could have known that such a twist would happen?
Their master (Young Master, Guild Leader) had just casually taken out a book and crushed the other party to death …
That was way too formidable!
The two Ancient Sages who had just turned to the deity and Sovereign Chen Ling felt like they wanted to die.
As long as they continued to follow the deity, they would be able to soar to the top. Yet … not only were they destroyed, they even offended Sovereign Chen Yong. It would be impossible for them to have such a chance in the future.
Weren't deities supposed to be invincible? Why were they so unreliable as well?
Even Zhang Xuan was dumbfounded by the sight before him.
He had only taken out the golden page out of desperation. He had thought that he would only be able to fend off the other party for a moment, but who could have known that he would be able to kill the other party with a single slap?
If only he had known that the other party was such a weakling, he would have taken out the golden page long ago!
"Previously, when the Book of Heaven's Path killed that Ancient Sage 1-dan expert, I felt some resistance from it. Yet, it was able to kill this Ancient Sage 1-dan expert with ease.
After recovering, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.
It had taken him quite a bit of effort to kill the Bloodline Continuance Ancient Sage back in the Hall of Providence, but it had been a walk in the park for him. Most likely, it had something to do with the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn.
In other words, even though the Library of Heaven's Path was unable to see through the deity, the power of the Book of Heaven's Path that it had created far surpassed that of the deity.
"Sovereign Chen Yong, I'll leave him to you!"
With this guy dead, all the hidden dangers were gone. Zhang Xuan didn't say anything more. With a sway of his body, he appeared before the 'deity'.
If he could forge the body of a Dimension Shatterer realm expert into a Soulless Metal Humanoid, he would be invincible in the world!
Most importantly, he would have the opportunity to enter a higher plane and search for traces of Lozosy.
As for the grudge between Sovereign Chen Yong and Sovereign Chen Ling, it was time for them to settle it themselves.
"Thank you, young master!"
Seeing that the Young Master had given him his freedom, Sovereign Chen Yong's face was filled with gratitude. He turned to Sovereign Chen Ling and said, "Sovereign Chen Ling, I have treated you well. Yet, you colluded with the humans and rebelled against me. I believe you should know what kind of crime you have committed, right? "
"The winner takes all. Since I've lost, I have nothing to say!"
Sovereign Chen Ling turned around and saw that Ancient Sage Mo Ling, Ancient Sage Allfire, and the others had sealed the surrounding space. Knowing that it was impossible for him to escape, he heaved a sigh of relief.
If he won, he would rule over the world. If he lost … at most, he would just die.
Back then, Sovereign Chen Ling had already predicted this outcome, and he had thought that he would not be able to accept it. Who could have thought that he would actually be able to accept it?
"I know the reason behind your rebellion!"
Seeing Sovereign Chen Ling's attitude, a hint of admiration surfaced on Sovereign Chen Yong's face. "Since ancient times, the Three Sovereigns of the Spirit Tribe have always viewed your lineage as the leader. However, ever since my grandfather rose to prominence and became the strongest expert of the Spirit Tribe, your lineage has been on the wane. From the moment you were born, you displayed exceptional talent, and you intended to bring glory back to the Spirit Tribe. However, it was a pity that you met me. You wanted to surpass me and restore the glory of your lineage, but in the end, you failed. That's why you made this decision. You thought that as long as I died, you would be able to rule over the world once more. However, it was a mistake! "
Sovereign Chen Yong sighed deeply.
In ancient times, Sovereign Chen Ling had been the leader of the Three Sovereigns, and that was also the reason why he was given the 'Ling' character. Later on, Kong Shi appeared out of nowhere, and the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe rose up to contend with him. It was due to this that the authority of the Three Sovereigns fell into the hands of Sovereign Chen Yong's lineage.
As the leader of the Three Sovereigns, it was only natural that Sovereign Chen Ling was unwilling to submit to them. As time went by, such a scene occurred.
While it was a coincidence, it was also inevitable.
"I don't care what crimes you want to accuse me of. Death is death, and I don't care what you say!"
Sovereign Chen Ling waved his hand.
"Accuse you of something?" Sovereign Chen Yong shook his head. "You are underestimating me. Since you said that the winner takes all, I'll give you another chance. I'll make sure that you accept your defeat wholeheartedly! "
"Another chance?"
"Simple. I won't allow anyone else to make a move on me. We'll have a fair duel, and if I win, I'll leave this place alive. If I lose, I'll die here! "
Sovereign Chen Yong said.
The reason why Sovereign Chen Ling had rebelled against him was due to the grudge between him and his ancestor. Since that was the case, he would resolve this matter with his own strength!
"Are you serious?"
Sovereign Chen Ling asked with narrowed eyes.
He had thought that he would die for sure, but who could have thought that Sovereign Chen Ling would still insist on a fair duel?
If it had been in the past, he would have been no match for Sovereign Chen Ling. However, given how severely injured Sovereign Chen Ling was, even if he was severely injured, he would still stand a chance at victory.
"That's right!" Sovereign Chen Yong nodded.
"Your Majesty …"
Seeing that Sovereign Chen Ling had made such a decision, Ancient Sage Allfire was taken aback.
Why would he give Sovereign Chen Ling a chance to retaliate? All he had to do was charge forward together and strike him down.
"Let him go!"
Ancient Sage Mo Ling was just about to say something when Zhang Xuan suddenly waved his hand.
He knew what Sovereign Chen Yong was thinking.
This was the first time he had suffered such a huge setback in his life, and it was against a trusted comrade at that. There was no physical wound that hurt more than the wound in his heart.
Since Sovereign Chen Ling refused to submit to him, he would use this final duel to show the other party his true strength!
At most, he would just die!
This was his pride and determination.
"Yes!"
Ancient Sage Mo Ling and Ancient Sage Allfire nodded their heads in agreement.
Since Zhang Xuan could think of this, it went without saying that they could not help but feel an indescribable sorrow in their hearts.
Having traveled together with Sovereign Chen Yong, they knew how severe the other party's injuries were. It was already a miracle that he had been able to last this long. If he were to continue fighting, not even the gods would be able to save him.
Despite knowing that he was going to die, he still chose to fight for the pride in his heart.
It was no wonder Sovereign Chen Yong was able to wield such great prestige in the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
